Catch Up!

I know, I've been neglecting my blog again. But hey, what can you somethings got to give sometimes!!! Mom, wife, part time marketing clerk 20+ hours a week, Etsy shop and Christmas coming up, yep just reading all that makes me tired and feel out of time. :) Well, of course there are other distractions, like watching my new favorite show Once Upon a Time during naptime or after bedtime for the boy.

If you missed it, my real life messy craft room was recently featured on a great, funny blog called My Life and Kids. You can see the crazy mess here... don't think too poorly of me I had a lot going on. Though to be fair, while doesn't look quite that bad right now, but it's still far from as neat and cute as I'd like it! Check out the rest of her blog too, she is HILARIOUS!

My tutu's recently traveled to northern Wisconsin for a boutique style craft show. No pictures to share since I didn't travel with them (and I'm not sure they allow pictures anyway). I didn't sell out but at least a few less came back. And truly, I'm okay with them not selling out because of course it's a big shopping weekend and at least my Etsy shop will have stock! :)

While my tutu's were away I had the chance to do some non Etsy store related crafting with my little boy. I hauled out the scissors, Christmas paper, glue, buttons, stamps and ink and we had a fun time making a few Christmas cards! It was a blast, although he really liked to try to dump ALL the buttons out which was not so much fun for Mama to pick up.

Today I got a chance to take some photos of my tutus with my neighbor who was kind enough to borrow me her kids as models! Aren't these girls adorable? We had to bribe the older one with Hunter in a picture with her (and a couple suckers!) but I was excited to get some decent shots- don't get me wrong, they are totally not professional level, but I like them. And I especially love the picture with Hunter, so sweet!

And I got these photos just in time for the big 4 day sale, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday & Cyber Monday (with Sunday thrown in for good measure!). Now just to edit and tweak all the listings **sigh** LOL.

Well, that's all for now! Hopefully I'll make it back to the blog before the New Year! :)
